Owen Jones: Chinese Floral No. 77

Description

 Plate LXXVII from “Examples of Chinese Ornament” by Owen Jones, published in 1867. 

Soft, airy and full of wanderlust — this boho beach cloth brings a vintage-inspired floral tapestry to sand, boardwalks, and impromptu picnics. The vibrant, painterly pattern blooms across a mint-green background, with coral and rose accents that feel sun-warmed and a little romantic. Light and quick-drying, it slips into a tote or roll-up bag and becomes a towel, sarong, picnic blanket, or lightweight throw for cooler evenings. Knotted tassels trim the edges, adding handcrafted charm and movement when the ocean breeze catches it. Lay it down, wrap up in it, or drape it over a chair — it’s the kind of piece that turns small moments into little rituals of color and calm.
